I am off to Nevada again, tomorrow, (I am currently living only about 100 miles away from the border/Reno) as I too am seriously considering relocating to a more tax friendly state - and Nevada is one of the best, as I am told they have no State income tax at all; and the State tax is about 7.5% and in California it is more, 10% in some places. And California is incredibly over regulated in my opinion.


As an aside, Nevada might be more comfortable politically for you, as you have opined that Maryland is way too liberal for your taste and preferences.

Nevada is far more conservative than most of California, especially the greater SF and LA areas.

And spending more and more time in Nevada, I am discovering that the conservatism there becomes more and more comfortable (for me) and understandable. It is not too hard to come to terms with, in light of the conditions that exist for somebody seeking a pleasant and comfortable life there...
